If he drops, I don’t think he’ll endorse any of them. The only one with a chance is Romney. McCain (yes, I know its his friend) and Huck are just too ideologically different than Fred. Fred has too much integrity to endorse someone who is bad for conservatism.
As a Thompson supporter I wish I could make a statement as definitive as yours.
—Fred has too much integrity to endorse someone who is bad for conservatism.—
But by definition, in my opinion, of the contenders left there are none really good for conservatism. So if he was to endorse anyone, I could easily see FDT throwing his support behind McCain, someone he apparently has respect for. As much as I would hate to see it happen.
A broken heart looms.
